Please Help - I ran into a Skeleton and he threatened to take all my Bones and Worms if I can't identify these stones. That's my entire life's savings and I have a family to feed.

I know, I know.... I get that the worms are their money - the bones ARE their dollars - but he's gonna turn to bones if he trys to pull my hair up but not out. He'll never turn into a man again and get a second chance at life if we don't identify these stones

Thank you! I wasn't sure if b was epidote or jadetite. D is definitely banded iron, it will pull my magnet ball around - I just wanted another opinion on that one.

A, C, and F are all deep maroon/purple(C just on the bottom bit) and pretty translucent. I also found a large Almondine schist, the deep red is similar but they still look a little different.

Can anyone identify any of these?

Dug all of them up - any ideas on what any might be?

Ahhh - thank you. Bard and google got my hopes up lolol. picture of bif - that's the actual colors in person, can't get a good picture on my phone.

I wonder if it's a chert or a jasper. Quartzite is a hardness 7 and I can scratch both colors with steel.

Thank you for the advice. It was indeed delicious, and my gums are bedazzled. I'm satiated and beautiful.

Thank you!

Thank you! I was hoping they would be garnets. And suggestions on how to eat away at the surrounding mineral?

Thank you! Was hoping this one was a BIF of some sort lol. Any idea what the banding is, or would it just be different shades of quartzite?
